The length of vector denotes magnitude of vector is a TRUE statement.

<u>Explanation: </u>

A vector is denoted in vector diagram with the line and an arrow on the top of the line. The length of line denotes the magnitude and the arrow denoting the direction of the vector.

The vector quantity is described in both magnitude as well as the direction. The direction on vector symbol denotes the direction of arrow points.

A car is traveling at 7.0 m/s when the driver applies the brakes. The car moves 1.5 m before it comes to a complete stop. If the

viva [34]

Answer:

d. 6.0 m

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the car, u = 7.0 m/s

distance traveled by the car, d = 1.5 m

Assuming the car to be decelerating at a constant rate when the brakes were applied;

v² = u² + 2(-a)s

v² = u² - 2as

where;

v is the final velocity of the car when it stops

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

a = u² / 2s

a = (7)² / (2 x 1.5)

a = 16.333 m/s

When the velocity is 14 m/s

v² = u² - 2as

0 = u² - 2as

2as = u²

s = u² / 2a

s = (14)² / (2 x 16.333)

s = 6.0 m

Therefore, If the car had been moving at 14 m/s, it would have traveled 6.0 m before stopping.

The correct option is d

A vertical spring stretches 9.6 cm when a 1.3 kg block is hung from its end. (a) Calculate the spring constant. This block is th

tatiyna

Answer:

F = - K x

a) K = 1.3 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 / .096 m = 133 kg/sec^2

b) ω = (K/m)^1/2 angular frequency of SHM

ω = (133 / 1.3)^1/2 = 10.1 / sec

f = 2 π ω = 6.28 * 10.1 / sec = 63.5 / sec

P = 1/f = .0157 sec

How do i find stretch? The problem in questioning has already given me the elastic energy and k-value, but I have no idea how to

finlep [7]

Answer:

Stretch can be obtained using the Elastic potential energy formula.

The expression to find the stretch (x) is $x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}$

Explanation:

Given:

Elastic potential energy (EPE) of the spring mass system and the spring constant (k) are given.

To find: Elongation in the spring (x).

We can find the elongation or stretch of the spring using the formula for Elastic Potential Energy (EPE).

The formula to find EPE is given as:

$EPE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

Rewriting the above expression in terms of 'x', we get:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}$

Example:

If EPE = 100 J and spring constant, k = 2 N/m.

Elongation or stretch is given as:

$x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times EPE}{k}}\\\\x=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 100}{2}}\\\\x=\sqrt{100}=10\ m$

Therefore, the stretch in the spring is 10 m.

So, stretch in the spring can be calculated using the formula for Elastic Potential Energy.
